This motel was amazing. We stayed for 3 nights, had more than enough space. The kitchenette was very convenient for slow breakfasts, the view of the mountains was stunning, the lake was right out the front door, and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Amazing experience!

Lovely clean room! Beautiful view that was a short walk to lovely restaurants and cafes. Would be great if the blind could be turned around to roll down against the window rather than away as it left quite a large gap where we could see out to people walking along the verandah to their room and they could see in.

Our host at reception was excellent — warm, welcoming, friendly and very helpful. While this is a basic motel, it had everything we needed for a very pleasant stay in a wonderful town.
